VA re-eval, after 10 years!

[jon lynn]

Yesterday I took a train to Frankfurt, with appointment slips from the US Counsalate, to various German doctors, so I could crawl in to a very-very loud MRI machine. I mean this puppy sounded like a brick in the dryer! (Kdump-kadump-kadump) I even had to wear hearing protection. I wanted to ask the people questions, but they replied, "The doctors will answer, we are just technicans."

Then I went to an X-Ray place down the road, where after eight trys, they got the angle they wanted, hope I don't get radaiation poisioning.

Then finally to the doctor to go over the data and pictures, and after 10 years of questions building up, I had QUESTIONS TO ASK! Indeed, I was going to ask how, what when and what can I do!?!?

HE WAVED ME OFF! I mean he took his hand and made a brushing motion, I wan IN and OUT in less than 5 minutes! After waiting to plea my case to the VA, I didnt get a single word in the three offices, and I had 10 years of supporting doccuments.........crud!


BUT they found my pain was real, and not in my mind like the VA accused, I have two collapsed disk in my lumbar region. So do you think the VA will help me get through this, this time?
